Lecture hall
意味: A large auditorium-style classroom where hundreds of students attend a professor's lecture.
The lecture hall is the classic college academic experience — 300 students in a tiered auditorium watching one professor at the front. It is where introductory courses happen: Psych 101, Bio 101, Econ 101. 'Lecture hall classes' mean you are just a number — the professor cannot learn 300 names. Students sit in the back to nap or scroll their phones. The front rows are for the overachievers. Lecture halls represent the industrial scale of American higher education.
